the art of letter writing
we are we are
like we’ve never been before
either a stone’s throw
away from yesterday
or light years ahead of our time
pardon me missus postman
but won’t you send
a card for me
all the way to my haiku friend
biding his time in tokyo
we are we are
continuously inventing
like a poem lost in the clouds
a drone or airmail stamp away
from landing atop your lap
may two thousand nineteen

I am a letter writer and consider hand written letters sent to me be among my finest possessions
oh yes indeed, beth!
Letter writing is an art we are fast losing… Beautiful poetry!
Indeed, Mona! Thank you so much.
So lovely!
I missed your comment somehow, thank you LT!
